First Data® Payment Software for Windows® is a fully integrated PC-based credit, debit, and purchasing card authorization and settlement system. The Payment Software system communicates directly with the First Data platforms to authorize payment transactions, then stores them for end-of-day settlement. This process is as simple as swiping a card, or key-entering a card, then entering the transaction amount. Transactions can also be sent to the Payment Software system via an import function from any point-of-sale (POS) or order entry system. The Payment Software solution can also be interfaced to a POS or order entry system, share a PC platform, and provide communications with the outside world for authorizations and batch settlement.
